Which Elton John album was released in 2021 and features collaborations recorded during lockdown?

The Lockdown Sessions is Elton John's 2021 album featuring collaborations recorded during the COVID-19 lockdown period.

The album developed from remote and studio collaborations made while normal touring was disrupted. Rather than functioning as a traditional solo album, it brings John together with artists from pop, rock, country, and electronic music.

Guests include Dua Lipa, Stevie Wonder, Miley Cyrus, Brandi Carlile, and Eddie Vedder. The project includes both newly recorded material and reinterpretations of earlier songs. Its lead single, "Cold Heart (Pnau remix)," became a major international success.

The album is distinct from The Union, which paired John with Leon Russell in 2010. The Lockdown Sessions emphasizes a broad modern collaboration format and reflects the unusual recording conditions of the early 2020s.
